Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 Onion
  • 2 cloves Garlic
  • 2 tsp Smoked Paprika
  • 1 tsp Cajun Spice
  • 1 pinch Red Pepper Flakes
  • 1 Zucchini
  • ½ Pepper
  • 5.29 oz Mushrooms
  • 1 can Mixed Beans
  • ⅔ cup Tomato Sauce
  • 1 tsp Italian Seasoning
  • Salt
  • Black Pepper
  • 6 Tacos
  • 2.82 oz Cathedral City Plant-based Mature
  • 3 Green Onions
  • 1 Red Chili Pepper

Instructions

  1. First heat the oil in a large non-stick pan and cook the onion and garlic for 10 minutes to soften.
  2. Add the paprika, Cajun and chili flakes and cook for a few minutes longer to coat, then stir in the other vegetables. Continue cooking for 5 minutes.
  3. Throw in the beans, passata, herbs and seasoning and simmer for 10-15 minutes until the veggies have softened and the sauce has thickened.
  4. Preheat the oven to 350°F, arrange the taco shells in an ovenproof dish (stacked tightly so they stay upright) and bake for a few minutes to crisp.
  5. Remove from the oven and spoon in some of the filling in each. Scatter over the Cathedral City and return to the oven for 4-5 minutes until it has melted.
  6. Sprinkle over the green onion and chilies, then dish up!
